When I was in high school (~10 years ago), our GSA club would literally fill an entire classroom. Today I found out that last year only two people joined, and this year there is no one.

I’m worried about my former English teacher who was the clubs sponsor. He was my first openly gay teacher/adult in my life. He’s not backing down and is keeping all of his pride flags up in his classroom this year.

One of my other friends is teaching in a county near where we’re both from. A teacher at his school was fired last year for showing a Disney movie to her students.

It’s hard to not believe that these are the end times.

@Builduhbear the presence of a GSA was banned at my high school all through the 2000s-10s. A little while after I graduated, my Florida district finally decided to allow a GSA and then it got shut down like six months later because of protests. So I just think a lot about how South Florida is one of the gayest regions of florida but it has long fought the presence of the gays.
@assignedbsba we can literally never have nice things I am tired of it!!!
@Builduhbear the institution I’m hoping to move to next fall has one of the oldest Florida university system GSAs and I’m also hoping it’s still in place when I get there next year lol
